A Place Against Time is an ethnographically focused environmental
study of Montane, New Guinea, where people were among the world's
first to cultivate crops some ten millennia ago, and where today an
enduring agricultural condition continues. It arranges its account
of climate, vegetation topography and geology according to their
relationship with the soils of the region occupied by Wola speakers
in the Southern Highlands Province of Papua New Guinea, in the
Western Pacific. This book breaks new intellectual ground as an
ethno-environmental investigation with a soils perspective,
ethno-pedology being a little researched topic to date.
